We have become a community interest company and we have a new name!
Why Climate Explorers? We wanted a name that would reflect our mission going forward which is exploring climate solutions through eco-adventures and sharing them with the world through media. From the success of the Pedal 4 Parks impact campaign we decided to become a community interest company (CIC) to grow our mission to highlight climate solutions, raise environmental awareness and promote physical and mental wellbeing through eco-adventures
DAY 6 & 7- Leaving Scotland: City Cycling and Disaster in the Lakes
On Day 6 the team sacrificed the extensive green spaces of the past week to cover a bigger distance and make a leap down the country towards the Lake District.

Other than our tent and each other we were near enough alone on the edge of the loch, an experience that the whole crew will cherish for a long time.

The Cairngorms is the largest national park in the UK, stretching across 4,500 square kilometres of mountain ranges and lochs. As you can imagine, the mountain route was full of natural beauty… but it also meant the elevation was about to get a
